Work on Exeter retirement scheme due to complete next year

Work on a new integrated retirement community in Exeter is set to be completed by the end of next year.

Construction is now well under way on the site off Topsham Road in the highly sought after residential area of St Leonards.

Radford House will comprise 65 one, two and three-bedroom retirement apartments for the over 65’s, in a safe and secure environment, with the benefit of patios or walk-out balconies to all apartments.

Alexandra Johnson, sales and marketing director for Adlington Retirement Living, said: “Radford house will have an excellent location, close to parks and green spaces, adjacent to the River Exe, and with easy access to Exeter City Centre.

“Our award-winning approach to independent living, ensures homeowners don’t have to compromise on their lifestyle, their social life or their independence. We aim to provide a community spirit, whilst promoting independence and individual respect. It’s a chance to become part of a thriving community of like-minded people, with a shared outlook.”

Alexandra added: “More of our homeowners are choosing to move to retirement communities whilst they’re fit and healthy, to future-proof their retirement. We offer a personal approach to care to ensure that each individual receives just the right amount to maintain their independence, allowing them to enjoy their retirement to the full.

“Even though many of our homeowners do not need specialist care, the Adlington on-site support team is always there in the background giving them and their families comfort that in the event of an unexpected fall help is immediately to hand.”

Each apartment has been designed to make everyday life easier, safer and more comfortable.

Quality fixtures and fittings will include hardwearing 80% wool carpets that reduce heat loss and add a touch of luxury, feature fireplaces and fully fitted kitchens with integrated appliances.

Many will feature en-suite shower rooms as well as separate bathrooms, and most will have a private patio area or walk-out balcony overlooking the beautifully landscaped gardens.

Adlington Retirement Living has new retirement communities in Heaton Mersey, Stockport, and Lytham, Lancashire.

Newly open Adlington Retirement Living communities include Broadleaf House in Wylde Green, Sutton Coldfield, The Newells in Kempston, Bedfordshire, The Spindles in Menston, The Sidings in Lytham, The Woodlands in Heaton Mersey, Jacobs Gate in Sheffield and The Folds in Romiley, with further sites progressing in Newcastle-under-Lyme and Knaresborough, and recently sold-out communities in Southport, Ramsbottom, Cheadle, Macclesfield, Otley, Stafford and Urmston.
